``hgboost`` is short for **Hyperoptimized Gradient Boosting** and is a python package for hyperparameter optimization for *xgboost*, *catboost* and *lightboost* using cross-validation, and evaluating the results on an independent validation set.
``hgboost`` can be applied for classification and regression tasks.

``hgboost`` is fun because:

    * 1. Hyperoptimization of the Parameter-space using bayesian approach.
    * 2. Determines the best scoring model(s) using k-fold cross validation.
    * 3. Evaluates best model on independent evaluation set.
    * 4. Fit model on entire input-data using the best model.
    * 5. Works for classification and regression
    * 6. Creating an ensemble of all available methods is a one-liner.
    * 7. Return model, space and test/evaluation results.
    * 8. Makes insightful plots.

### Installation Environment
* Install hgboost from PyPI (recommended). hgboost is compatible with Python 3.6+ and runs on Linux, MacOS X and Windows. 
* A new environment is recommended and created as following: 

```python
conda create -n env_hgboost python=3.6
conda activate env_hgboost
```

### Install newest version hgboost from pypi

```bash
pip install hgboost

```

**Force to install latest version**

```bash
pip install -U hgboost
```

### Install from github-source

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/erdogant/hgboost#egg=master
```  

#### Import hgboost package
```python
import hgboost as hgboost
```

#### Classification example for xgboost, catboost and lightboost:

```python

# Load libray
from hgboost import hgboost

# Initizalization
hgb = hgboost(max_eval=10, threshold=0.5, cv=5, test_size=0.2, val_size=0.2, top_cv_evals=10, random_state=42)

```

```python

# Import data
df = hgb.import_example()
y = df['Survived'].values
y = y.astype(str)
y[y=='1']='survived'
y[y=='0']='dead'

# Preprocessing by encoding variables
del df['Survived']
X = hgb.preprocessing(df)

```

```python
# Fit catboost by hyperoptimization and cross-validation
results = hgb.catboost(X, y, pos_label='survived')

# Fit lightboost by hyperoptimization and cross-validation
results = hgb.lightboost(X, y, pos_label='survived')

# Fit xgboost by hyperoptimization and cross-validation
results = hgb.xgboost(X, y, pos_label='survived')

# Import data
df = hgb.import_example()
y = df['Age'].values

I = ~np.isnan(y)
X = hgb.preprocessing(df, verbose=0)
X = X.loc[I,:]
y = y[I]

results = hgb.ensemble(X, y, methods=['xgb_reg','ctb_reg','lgb_reg'])

# use the predictor
y_pred, y_proba = hgb.predict(X)
